Collaborative Optimization of Multiclass Imbalanced Learning: Density-Aware and Region-Guided Boosting

The paper introduces a collaborative optimization Boosting model for multiclass imbalanced learning that integrates density and confidence factors to create a noise‑resistant weight update mechanism and a dynamic sampling strategy. The modules are tightly coupled to coordinate weight updates, sample region partitioning, and region‑guided sampling. Experiments on 40 public imbalanced datasets show the model significantly outperforms seven state‑of‑the‑art baselines.

VICAL: Vicinal Consistency Alignment for Long-Tailed Visual Recognition

VICAL is a framework for long‑tailed visual recognition that focuses on reducing prediction variance rather than increasing expert diversity. It combines Self‑Consistency Learning, which smooths the loss landscape and mitigates overfitting on tail classes, with Deep Ensemble Distillation, which encourages low‑frequency semantic agreement across experts. Experiments on CIFAR‑LT, ImageNet‑LT, and iNaturalist 2018 demonstrate that VICAL consistently outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods.
